Produktbeschreibung
Although his seeking to accomplish great things in the goal of the "American dream" is fallen before his eyes, there is a meaning which is new. As he faces the truth before him, a kind of cosmic connection grows more apparent in his awareness. He finds new ways of being, and a mindfulness in expression that does work for his life anyway. While he may never be and Admiral in the US military, he feels a growing awareness of his leadership as his ideal of being an Astronaut become more clear to him. And his resistance to advice on how to be "a man" has kept his friendship and good relations with others in the arts who are also non-conformist to antiquated ways of dealing with their humanity. He sees a bigger dream that he understood as a teenager, and he lives well in the shadow of his dreams.
Autorenporträt
First published in 1987 (ISBN 0-8062-2872-5) this futurist "what if" science fiction story branded the Vietnam Veteran changing his career. He would never find full placement with his Master of Arts Teaching degree in biology, or keep position in the Officer ranks of the military reserves. Instead the direction would be a career of much travel with work in the creative and theater arts, per diem teaching projects and social services often related to corrections or exceptional needs service organizations. Ongoing academic research and applied science will lead to US Patent 10404370 from page 15 of this original sci-fi novel presenting the "Newell Computer Code" and light signal communicator device.
